I have a GC2410 TLB with about 180 hrs on it. Original owner bought it in 2009. Recently the tractor is making a high pitch wine after using the front bucket or back hoe even the mower and bagger. Hard to figure where its coming from, but the hydraulic lines feel like they are extra hard and vibrate like it coming from the hydraulic system. . Checked the hydraulic oil and it's good in the sight glass, but added a little just to be safe. Oil and water are good also. Also feels like it lost a little of lift and power in the front bucket. Strange thing is it does not do the wine right away, usually after working it and it warms up. Engine not running hot. The one thing that happen was , I had the front bucket on with the mower and bagger system. I had to move some dirt, when i was movilng the dirt with the bucket the bagger kinda bottomed out, this caused a the hose clamp just under where you ad hydraulic oil to come loose and drip some hydraulic oil. I tightend it and no more leak. The noise is high and sounds and feels like it is working extra hard . Any ideas where to start. Ray in Seattle......
